Three women have been charged with several felonies in a suspected Medicaid fraud scheme in which they allegedly claimed one of them provided home healthcare services to the others while she was incarcerated in a Pueblo-area prison, the Colorado Attorney General's Office announced Monday."Not only does taking advantage of the state's Medicaid system place the vital services it provides at risk, but such a theft can threaten trust of healthcare providers,' Attorney General Phil Weiser said in a news release.
